Well actually you should discuss the necessity of the changes in ifconfig with
the author of the original posting :) What I proposed was just middle way
between what he proposed and what I did. I mean if somebody is changing
ifconfig anyway that way would be easier to implement. However
This is all pretty interesting, though it seems like you'd only
need to cobble together a shell script to do what you're after.
The ifconfig command seems happy to tell you the MAC address of
a specified interface.. It seems like an already present prototyping
environment for this type of

Hi,
I found out recently that the Linux (or at least recent RedHat) startup
scripts could be configured to not bring up an Ethernet interface unless
it has a specified MAC address. This, combined with the wonderful
interface renaming functionality recently committed to -CURRENT, led me
